Ingredients
  

Banana Bread:

  • 3 ripe bananas mashed
  • 1/3 cup melted coconut oil
  • 1/2 cup brown sugar
  • 1/4 cup non-dairy milk almond, oat, or your favorite alt
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 tsp baking soda
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1/2 tsp ground cinnamon

Cinnamon Streusel Topping:

  • 1/3 cup flour
  • 1/4 cup brown sugar
  • 1 1/2 tsp cinnamon
  • 3 tbsp vegan butter cold, cubed
  • Pinch of salt

Instructions
 

  • Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease your loaf pan like you mean it.
  • In a large bowl, mash bananas until they resemble your social battery—slightly mushy.
  • Stir in oil, sugar, milk, and vanilla. Combine until smooth and dramatic.
  • In a separate bowl, whisk flour, baking soda, salt, and cinnamon.
  • Add dry mix to the wet ingredients. Stir just until combined—no overmixing, we’re not angry.
  • Pour batter into the prepared pan and smooth the top like your best contour.
  • In a small bowl, mix streusel ingredients with a fork or fingers until crumbly and irresistible.
  • Sprinkle streusel evenly over the batter like you’re seasoning your ex’s karma.
  • Bake for 55 minutes, or until a toothpick comes out mostly clean.
  • Cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then remove and cool completely.
  • Slice, serve, and pretend it’s the first thing you’ve eaten all day (we won’t judge).

Additional Notes/Tips to Enhance Flavor

  • Add chopped walnuts or pecans to the batter for extra crunch.
  • A pinch of nutmeg in the streusel = chef’s kiss.
  • Swap half the flour for whole wheat if you're feeling "responsible."
  • Don’t skip the topping. It’s the only drama we support.
  • Store leftovers in an airtight container—if there are leftovers.
